This time around, we’ll be crocheting our favorite puppy dogs!

Get out your size H crochet hooks and what’s left of your yarn stash. You can take a look at where we’re headed in this CAL Introduction. Without further ado, I want us to dive in. I know you’ve all been waiting patiently (thank you, thank you!) for this to start. Well, let’s get this pup on the road!

If you follow charts, I’ve got that for you. If you like patterns, I’ve got that for you too! If you are new to C2C crocheting and would like to follow along with me on a couple of the squares, I’ve included the link to get over to my YouTube Channel video for this square.

I want to make this easy for you to learn, so novice or pro, you will end up with a wonderful pup-filled blanket celebrating our other favorite furry friend… DOGS!

Don’t forget to post pictures of your finished squares/rectangles using the hashtag for this crochet along on social media:

#DogghanCAL2020

I can’t wait to see your finished dogs, and eventually, your finished blankets too!

This pattern was lovingly tested by the wonderful crocheters over on the Facebook Group: CAL – Crochet A Long. Stop by, join the Dogghan group, and crochet with us!

While these Dogghan CAL posts will always be here for free on my blog, for convenience, I’ve also created one giant PDF file (nearly 70 pages!) for those who would like to purchase a copy of all the files together in one place. This file will also include how to finish the blanket by joining the squares together and creating a border too. No searching through posts necessary. Plus, it’s over there NOW, should you want to work ahead of the group rather than wait for each week’s new square/rectangle. You can purchase this pattern for a small fee here on Ravelry. You can also get it here, on Etsy.
